tC COQUALEETZA RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL

A

Music Department

HIs year has been one of outstanding progress in musical education, a line which has become a special

feature of Coqualeetza’s program.

From a first hesitant and inadequate beginning the Music Department has made great strides
in advancement, due not only to the increasing interest shown by the parents and pupils, but to the
untiring efforts of the Principal and Miss Milsom. Besides the development of natural ability, the culturat
value of music and music appreciation are goals towards which this department strives.

Throughout the year the pupils have brightened social functions and lecture evenings, with musical
selections. These occasions have served in bringing out latent talent and in inspiring confidence in the
performers.

G a,

The following is a note from Mr. Frank Idle, F.R.A.M., which we are permitted to publish. From

so noted a musician, it is keenly appreciated.

(copy) Sardis, June 17, 1931.

I have today visited Coqualeetza school, and I should like to record my
appreciation of the high standard of the music as taught in the School. I have
been particularly struck by the facility in sight-reading displayed by many
of the music students. My best wishes are towards the School, its Principal
and its Staff.
